Tuition and Policies

Civic Dance Center is committed to developing well rounded dancers through exposure to a variety of styles with an emphasis on classical ballet technique. All perspectives and individual talents are welcome to work constructively to achieve our shared values of discipline, imagination, and collaboration elevating our behavior both in and out of the studio by treating each other with professionalism, kindness, and respect. Throughout the year, dancers are offered meaningful performance opportunities that support artistic growth, build confidence, and foster a sense of community, allowing students to bring their training to life on stage.

Monthly tuition payments are due on the first of each month. To avoid a late fee penalty, pay any outstanding balance by the fifth of any given month where tuition is due. Late Fee Penalty is $25.

  • If there is an extenuating circumstance and special arrangements need to be made, please speak to Eric Ueberroth (661)588-1056.

All tuition is non-refundable; however, exceptions are made with a doctor’s note stating the medical reason necessary for withdrawal or if a class is cancelled due to low enrollment and a substitution is not available.

  • You must provide one month’s advance notice in writing if a student plans to leave the program.
  • Tuition for missed classes is not refunded. Make up classes are available. Dancers make up classes in the level below their regularly attended class. See Artistic Directors for best options for your dancer.
  • All classes are subject to minimum and maximum enrollment. Any registrations received after maximum enrollment has been reached will be refunded; if a class is cancelled for insufficient enrollment, any registrations for it will be refunded.

Civic Dance Center reserves the right to suspend or dismiss any student whose attitude, attendance, or conduct is found to be disruptive or unsatisfactory. No refund of the current month’s tuition will be made upon dismissal of the student.
